Natural Thickener Hydroxypropyl Guar
01
Product Description
Hydroxypropyl Guar is a modified form of guar gum, which is derived from the seeds of the guar plant. This natural polysaccharide is modified through hydroxypropylation, a chemical process that enhances its properties, making it more soluble in cold water and improving its stability under various conditions. As a thickening and gelling agent, Hydroxypropyl Guar is widely used in various industries due to its favorable characteristics.

High-Efficiency Thickening & Rheology Control
It significantly increases viscosity even at low concentrations, which helps in formulating stable products.
Emulsion Stabilization & Antistatic Effects
Acts as a co-emulsifier to enhance the stability of oil-in-water or water-in-oil systems, preventing separation in high-oil formulations. In hair care products, it adsorbs onto hair shafts to form a protective film, reducing static electricity and improving combability and shine.
Film-Forming & Skin Conditioning
Creates a breathable film on skin to lock in moisture and enhance the slow-release of active ingredients in skincare products. Mitigates irritation from surfactants in cleansers, making it suitable for sensitive skin formulas.
Natural Origin & Safety
Derived from plant-based guar beans, meeting consumer demands for "clean" and sustainable ingredients. Low allergenicity, approved by cosmetic safety assessments, ensuring broad applicability.
01
Use
When using Hydroxypropyl Guar, the incorporation method involves directly dispersing it into water or pre-mixing it with other powders such as salts or polymers to prevent clumping. It should be slowly added to cold water while stirring at a low speed, and full swelling should be ensured before combining it with oil phases or other ingredients. The recommended dosage typically ranges from 0.1%–2%, which may vary depending on the application: 0.2%–1% for hair/body washes, 0.1%–0.5% for skin creams and lotions, and 0.5%–2% for hair styling products like gels and sprays. In terms of compatibility, it can work well with anionic, cationic, and non-ionic surfactants, although high concentrations of electrolytes may have a slight impact on its viscosity.
